What are the responsibilities and job description for the MEMS PROCESS ENGINEER (Device-Level / Foundry Environment) position at Gyga Force?
If your experience is truly in MEMS fabrication and process development (not just testing, characterization, or tool support), this role is worth a look.
Our client is a Silicon Valley-based microfabrication provider supporting end-to-end MEMS and semiconductor development—from device design through production. They operate in a true foundry-style environment, working on both commercial and advanced R&D programs.
They are seeking a Process Engineer to drive MEMS fabrication development and support production-scale processes.
This role is NOT a fit if your background is primarily in testing/characterization, simulation, or equipment/vendor support without direct process ownership.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Lead development of MEMS fabrication processes and device builds
- Design and execute experiments across lithography, etch, deposition, and bonding
- Develop and refine process flows, recipes, and fabrication strategies
- Document process development, experimental results, and yield data
- Support production efforts, yield improvement, and defect reduction
- Ensure compliance with EHS and cleanroom standards
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:
- B.S. (M.S./Ph.D. preferred) in EE, ME, Materials Science, Physics, or similar
- ~5 years of hands-on MEMS or semiconductor process experience
- Direct experience in MEMS fabrication (not just analysis/testing)
- Strong mask layout experience (KLayout, L-Edit, or similar)
- Experience with core microfab techniques (lithography, etch, deposition, bonding)
BONUS (NOT REQUIRED):
- Materials characterization or surface prep experience
- SPC / DOE knowledge
- Experience mentoring or leading small teams
- Strong organizational and cross-functional communication skills
PERKS & INCENTIVES:
- Competitive base salary
- Comprehensive health coverage
- Unlimited PTO
- Paid U.S. holidays
- Consistent Monday–Friday daytime schedule
